What would a fox do with a chicken? Anyone who knows anything about the food chain would guess right. The Chicken Thief, a wordless picture book by Beatrice Rodriguez, tells such a story a bit differently. Rabbit and Bear live happily in their abode with a flock of chickens. One day, while they’re happily lunching, a fox comes along and steals a chicken! Off the fox runs with the chicken, through the woods, the deep dark forest, the mountains, and a rocky meadow. Through underground tunnels, to the beach, across the ocean, and finally to a fox’s den under a large tree, all while a desperate trio – the bear, the rabbit, and a rooster – chase closely to Fox’s tail, and an unlikely relationship begins to unfold along the journey. This story tells a tale of acceptance, and not judging a book by its cover. See this book listed in our catalog
